I use whichever control scheme works best for that particular game. Anything with a shooting machanic will inevitably be worse with a controller than a mouse. Some games also have complicated schemes best fit for controllers though like Brothers or the AssCreed games.

The worst is GTA which on foot is better with a keyboard and mouse, but in a car better with a controller.

Asiina and Chic, I grabbed your copies but my inventory page is wonky and won't let me access it right now. When it stops being temperamental I'll forward them.

Thanks a lot. I am still away for another day, but I'll install when I get home.

I have yet to win a CS:GO game, but came pretty close solo queuing. It went 16-12 and was dead even until about 20 rounds in. I was still the worst on my team, but by a small margin. I also managed to kill 3 people to win a round being the only person left. I'm proud of that one.

Then I played some arms race and was only 4 weapons off from the knife by the end. First time I got to pistols.

All in all, getting better.

I'm trying to approach the game differently, more like MMM did in Mean Girls (which I think Rarity and Asiina will understand). Less reliance on what the community have decided are the basic scum "tells" and more on thinking about what and why people are posting.

Not saying I'm doing a great job of it, but I want to break out of (what I see as) the rut of rote case making.

I do understand, and I have a good feeling about you for this style of posting, it feels genuine.

Look at Stretch Armstrong here. Stretching.

(about him freaking out, not about the other stuff, you're good there)

These kinda one-off comments ping me as fake, trying to get something going without actually doing the work of making a call.

If I use the MMM/capps style of "why are they posting this way?" then I don't know why a town player would make these kinds of comments. They don't advance any sort of opinion, but they're not complete shitposts or off topic either.

I've been feeling off about Somber this game, but not specifically that him and fv are faking a slapfight. His aggressiveness doesn't seem to have that earnest quality it usually does, but this is totally gut feeling.

Would vote Somber.

Somber does feel a little forced but I haven't played with him enough to tell what that means about his alignment, some people always read forced to me

Somber is always very aggressive and pushes people a lot, but it usually comes out as trying to figure out the game and get at the heart of things. This back and forth doesn't really feel like that.

Okay I finally got around to reading the entirety of D2.

With regards to fv:

Byers2142 posted:

That makes more sense. Now, why is it a scum tell to want to know the effect? That's the part I'm not getting; someone trying to learn what was affected by a day action is a null tell. At best, you could make the argument that all it tells us is that Amoeba and f_v can't be scumbros, or else why ask in the thread, but even that's a weak argument to make with other supporting evidence to shore it up.

I agree with this. Asking about the effect is dumb, but not scummy. FV's very defensive posture is scummy and her calling out YPM but then not following up is also scummy.

Your Personal Muse posted:

To be clear, I'm voting FV because she tried to force me to produce content with absolutely no follow up. It's not like I gave a home run answer or anything, she went through the motions, which seems like scum faking content.

Basically this.


Then merk steals the show:

merk posted:

I was going to post a case on Chic, but I think I've already done that. I also think the best case on Dugong is literally quoting that one post.

Rarity made a case on Pinterest that is 'eh.' I think my one quote of Pinterest just nakedly out there is stronger than Rarity's whole case.

I don't like the arrogance and flippantness (is this a word?) of merk's posting in general in this game as evidenced in this post, specifically for reasons Byers points out:

Byers2142 posted:

I disagree, at this point in the game there's been plenty of posts and time to get a sense of most player's body of work or lack thereof. Moreso, I think it speaks to a scum mentality to consider the game like that right now.

There's a whole bunch of content here that I can quote, but I agree wholeheartedly with Byers analysis of merk. He's my number one pick for the day. ##vote merk

Thoughts on others:

I like YPM's defense of himself and his pushing on fv. I'm feeling good about it. I'm also feeling good about KFC, even though I disagree that fv's post about the map change is a scummy act. Also Winged Orpheus, who reads as newbie town.

Your Personal Muse posted:

YPM made this post about fv and I can see it for her, but this is also how I feel about Rarity and to a lesser extent PMom right now. They've both made sniping, one line questions that feel like "I'm here generating content" without actually generating content.
